Event description

Description

Love creative photography? Come along to our June-July 2017 school holiday photography workshops and find out more about the creative aspects of photography (with just enough of the technical to ensure you know how to get the shots you want). You'll also get a print of your best photo of the day..

We begin the workshop with a brief (but not boring, we promise!) introduction to the technical side of photography - f-stops, shutter speeds, ISO, metering, colour temperatures and anything else we can squeeze in. You will learn which camera settings work for which shooting situations.

Then we cover the artistic side of image-making. We introduce the concepts of perception and sight, creative composition, story-telling and narrative, and elements of design such as line, colour and balance - with the emphasis on having lots of fun.

The day wraps with an intro to editing and printing and you will leave with a printed copy of your favourite photo from the day.

Skill level: suitable for all.

Equipment required: DSLR* with basic manual controls.

* Brisbane Camera Hire have generously offered to supply at no charge as many cameras as they can for those children who want to learn DSLR photography but may not own their own camera yet. BCH are an avid supporter of the industry and we thank Susan and the BCH team for their support. If you require a camera please make a note in your booking form.
